    So could this mean races such as Coldedale Horseshoe could be cancelled this weekend?

    But people spend that to go see Porky Pig at Old Trafford.
    Pity he's injured though

    At least at Disney the sun comes out

    Only teasing - quite agree with the sentiments!! Hope the back's easing up.... can recommend a good osteo if you need one... I've been digging all afternoon so a little stiff myself (as it were )..

    no but neither was it or the helicopter filming the airports, last I heard they were talking upwards of 15,000ft being the problem area.

    Think it's only a problem for jet engines though as it gets sucked in and clogs the engines

    I think you are right in the main but the dust will still clog up air filters and carberettas etc on prop planes.

    I did hear that they have sent one prop plane up to fly into the edge of the cloud to collect data.
